Learning Paths

We recommend beginning with Online GBV or Not? to spark discussion, surface shared understandings of online GBV and to clarify key concepts.

Following that, depending on time and the context, you can work with participants using the Deconstructing GBV or Story Circle to deepen the group's understanding of online GBV and to ground the conversation in experiences of people in the room (Story Circle) or case studies (Deconstructing GBV).
